First Christmas

We had such a BLESSED Christmas with family and friends. We really enjoyed our first Christmas as parents. We hope that our precious Ryann loved it as well!

Happy 8 Months Baby Girl

DECEMBER 4, 2007


APRIL 4, 2007

With the risk of sounding cliche...I really cannot believe how fast Ryann is growing up! We really cannot believe it has been 8 months since she has entered this world. What a BLESSING you are to us...precious Ryann Cate. Our lives are much sweeter thanks to you.

Baby Dedication

These pictures were from Ryann's Baby Dedication October 14. It was such a special day for Mark and I as we committed to raise Ryann to LOVE and KNOW the Lord.

Thanksgiving 2007

We had a great Thanksgiving and enjoyed seeing both of our families. Here are some pictures from this past weekend. We are so thankful for our families!

First Tattoo

I left Ryann with Mark for 5 minutes last night, and he gave Ryann her first tattoo with a sharpie...luckily it came off for the most part in the bath tub! At least the tattoo was about Mom!








Ryann loves her tattoo!! She is starting to smile really big when she sees any kind of camera, we have a little diva!










Every morning, Ryann loves to try and get my glasses off my face. I
usually am quick to stop her, but this time she won. She looks so proud of herself!

Fun Fall 2007 Pics

My sister Sara got engaged 2 weeks ago to an awesome guy named Jason. This past Saturday, my mom, Ryann, and I went dress shopping with her and had the BEST time. Ryann especially had fun looking at all the pretty colors and various shiny things...she especially liked touching the tiaras...uh oh Dad!! This picture was taken on the floor of the dress shop...I wish that I could post the cutest picture of Sara in her dress holding Ryann, but it is a surprise!! (in case Jason sees this!)

Ryann just loves Bath time, we love our little frog

Ryann's First Halloween

We had so much fun dressing up Ryann as a Bumble Bee this year. It was clearly more fun for Mark and I...She really didn't know what to think about the costume and we quickly took her out of it after 30 minutes.

Trick or TreatAren't I Bee-autiful!

Happy Halloween!

We're Blogging!

I have created this blog to be better about posting recent pics of our little lamb! We would also like to be better about keeping up with family and friends. So with that said, we are now blogging!
